Default Oil Changes?
I know most of you probably do your own oil changes but, can anybody recommend someone they trust for oil changes in the northwest suburbs area. I dont have the time to change the oil myself and would just rather take it somewhere. Any recommendations would be appreciated I am in the Northbrook area. Thanks!

Rick is your business in Downers Grove or somewhere else. Its a little far for me if its in Downers grove but, on a nice day I might be willing to take a ride.

Yes I am in Downers Grove, I sent you a PM. Totally understandable on the distance, I have many customers from all over IL though. I have one from Glenview, and a few from Huntley, Lately many of my new customers have been from Chicago.

Thanks,
